Just Little Things Blanket

a granny a day for 2015 with Queen Babs

...welcome to my 2015 Just Little Things Blanket! This year I am crocheting a 2 round granny square every day using 2 colours which represent something little I want to remember, celebrate or be grateful for.

Each block is only 6cm wide! I'm thinking 18 blocks by 20 (108cm x 120cm) which equals 360 blocks and 5 days of crocheting borders. Some days I am making 2 of the same to add the extra one at random moments. I am sewing the blocks together as I go, whip stitching the outside loops with the right sides together.

As so many have asked, I am including the pattern which is super simple, but really ANY 2 round granny will work as long as it's not too rounded. At the bottom of this page are all the squares I have made to date and the pattern!

2-Round Granny Square Pattern

from the Just Little Things Blanketby Queen Babs

I used a variety of colours in Patons Cotton Blend 8ply yarn plus a couple of other various balls gifted to me by friends and a 4mm hook. The Patons colours are called: Purple, Orange, Flamingo, Red (not Bright Red), Yellow, Sky, Royal Blue, Cloud, Apple Green, Fresh Green, Persian Green and Aqua.

Keep tension even through out the squares. (This will make it easier to sew them together!)

I am crocheting a 2 round granny square every day using 2 colours which represent something little I want to remember, celebrate or be grateful for. The idea is that the blanket is a year long project. one block a day for 360 days plus 5 days left in the year to make borders. This would create 18 blocks by 20 and roughly 108cm x 120cm when sewn together as each square is only 6cm wide.Some days I am making 2 of the same to add the extra one at random moments.
